Paredesh host Lesha in a Regular Season 3 clash that ended 1:2 on Saturday evening. A quick turnaround after the opening goal proved decisive, with the visitors turning the match on its head within minutes. The result moves Paredesh further clear at second while Lesha pick up their first away point of the campaign.
R. Ferreira gave the hosts the lead in the fourteenth minute, but Lesha responded almost immediately. Gustavo Fernandes equalised at twenty and Diego Fernandes turned it around at twenty-three. Three goals in ten minutes changed everything, and Paredesh looked rattled by then.
There were bookings scattered through the second half, with both sides picking up two yellow cards in the first quarter of an hour after the break. The game opened up with substitutions coming thick and fast from fifty-eight minutes onwards. Paredesh made three changes, Lesha four, each manager trying to find a way back or hold on.
The statistics tell a story of dominance without reward. Paredesh held 59 per cent possession and launched 112 attacks compared to 83 from the visitors. They registered eight shots on target to Lesha's five, yet the scoreboard told a different tale. Many shots with one goal means chances went begging.
Paredesh sit second with nine points from four matches, three wins and one defeat. Lesha remain eighth with four points, one win, one draw and two losses. The away side's run of heavy defeats looks to have ended here, though they still have work to do to climb the table.
